El Clasico




What is El Clasico? The Classic! Not quite. Actually the term refers to the rivalry in world football between Real Madrid vs. Barcelona. These two legendary and gigantic soccer clubs are among the most successful in Europe and the world and when they go against each other soccer aficionados gather together to watch the intensity of this match.

Everything is at stake. Real Madrid and Barcelona go against each other not only for the historic rivalry between their respective cities but also everything else. Is not only the historical and political conflict the gets tangle up in El Clasico but also respect.


Weeks before the date of El Clasico the media that surrounds the beautiful game is in charge of building provocative stories to heat things up between these two. Fans of each of the clubs talk smack about the other and some take it to an extreme and dangerous level.

El Clasico is up on us and the world will be watching. One more reason that makes this match so good is the presence of great footballers on both teams. But recently it has gotten even better. Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are undoubtedly the best players in the world and they have brought El Clasico to a whole new level. These two are both nicknamed score machines because their goal tally just keeps climbing up every season. So it is not only Real Madrid vs. Barcelona but also Cristiano vs. Messi.

Don’t go too crazy about it and make sure you get on with your life after the match :D

It will be an interesting match since both teams seem to be missing something. Real Madrid have been criticized for lack of willingness from some of the starting eleven and Barcelona has not been so brilliant in the last two matches and for that reason El Clasico could go either way. But the first meeting is at Barcelona’s Camp Nou Stadium and for that reason Barca are the favorites to win this one. It will definitely be an intense and interesting match for all soccer aficionados out there.
